Who it’s for
MemonaIQ for Media Publishers
How publishers keep large archives healthy: find outbound links that have rotted, fix redirects left by CMS changes, and keep article images light.
Publishers have more old pages than almost anyone, and old pages link to sources that move or disappear. Every dead link in an article that still gets read is a small break in trust with the reader.
Finding link rot
Crawl sections of the archive, up to 100 pages at a time, to find internal pages that now fail, and paste outbound links into the URL checker to find the ones that have rotted. Start with the articles that still get traffic.
Tools: Site crawler, URL Intelligence
After CMS and URL changes
Check that old article URLs, including ones shared on social media years ago, still redirect to the right story in a single hop.
